Marketing Methods You Should Avoid
There are good marketing methods that can make you a lot of money and there are bad ones, these are the BAD
ones:
• Don’t waste your money and time on Free-For-All (FFA) pages in your pursuit of marketing your product
Firstly, nobody reads FFA pages now. Secondly, your link stays on the page for only a few
minutes at most. Furthermore, FFAs are set up to benefit only its operators.
• Stay away from buying guaranteed traffic, no matter how tempting they are
Quite simply, guaranteed traffic providers get you your traffic by popping up your web page in another window on
other web sites. These windows containing your web site will sit below the current window of an Internet surfer who
is looking at another web site in his window above yours thus the window containing your web site is in a Pop-Under
window. Your web site will then come into view when the surfer closes his current window because of its location,
being under his current window that he’s closing. Technically, you got the traffic you asked for. But you might not
even get one sale from this method as in
the first place, the traffic is untargeted. Secondly, your web page is of little attention to the surfers.
• Don’t waste your time on posting in classified ads as there are rarely anyone reading them on the
Internet.
Safelists is also a poor marketing method you should refrain from using.
Basically, you send your advertisement e-mails to people you don’t know, but are expecting to receive such mail
from you because everybody who is on these lists knows that they will be receiving e-mails from the others on the
list. And those who join these lists are willing to agree to this condition because they themselves would want to
send out their own e-mails to the others on the list. The result? Everyone’s sending advertisements to each other
but no one cares to read them!
• Traffic Exchange programs will not work in your favor if you set your campaign URL to your Resell Rights
product’s sales letter
This is because most of the Traffic Exchange members, like yourself, are either webmasters or Internet
Marketers. Members like you surf Traffic Exchange programs to earn credits so that others can visit their own site.
Very likely, no members of Traffic Exchange programs are in the mood to purchase anything through the web pages
seen in Traffic Exchange programs.
